An amusing story (at least to me ;D) as reported by the NSFD.
June 16, 2008
Crews from the 17 House provided assistance on two rescues Monday. The first one was a 25-year-old female stuck in a child swing at Tuttle Beach in Pymatuning State Park. 17-9 and 17-8 responded to the beach area where a Pymatuning Park Ranger was already on scene. Crews found the female trapped with both legs stuck in the swing. To make matters worse the patient did have a history of a hip replacement and was in pain. Crews stabilized then lowered the swing by disconnecting it from the cross bar. Once lowered, crews worked for about an hour slowly cutting through the sides of the swing to free the female. Once the swing was off, Chief 31 assessed the female and she refused transport by ambulance.
